LIVE VIDEO: House Debates Coronavirus Stimulus Bill

USA Today reports:



Several members of Congress from New York City are traveling to Washington, D.C., Friday to vote on the coronavirus stimulus package despite White House guidance for New Yorkers to self-quarantine

Earlier this week at a coronavirus task force press briefing, Dr. Deborah Birx advised people from New York to self-quarantine for 14 days after leaving the city to avoid spreading the virus. In spite of this guidance, several members representing parts of New York City were spotted on the House floor or traveled to Washington to vote.

House leaders asked lawmakers to quickly return to Washington over fears an in-person vote would be needed to move the bill to President Donald Trump for final approval.
